• Edelweiss II<br />

• Excellent background rejection <strong>with</strong> ID design<br />

• Setting limits at low-mass comparable to XENON/CDMS and in contradiction <strong>with</strong><br />

CoGeNT / DAMA / CRESST<br />

• Maximum Likelihood (and o<strong>the</strong>r statistical methods) analysis to come<br />

• Edelweiss III<br />

• 32 kg of detector mass (24 kg fiducial) starting mid-2013<br />
